Error: S4s-elt-character: Non-whitespace Character

问题:

I have this xml-Schema:

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified"
attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
        <xs:element name="Fussballmannschaft">
                <xs:complexType>
                        <xs:attribute name="Name" type="xs:string" />
                        <xs:attribute name="Stadt" type="xs:string" />
                        <xs:attribute name="Tabellenplatz" type="xs:string" />
                        <xs:element name="Spieler">
                                <xs:complexType>
                                        <xs:attribute name="SpielerID" type="xs:string" />
                                        <xs:keyref name="I_D" refer="Name" />
                                        <xs:attribute name="Name" type="xs:string" />
                                        <xs:element name="Torwart">
                                                <xs:attribute name="GehealteneElfmeter" type="xs:integer" />
                                                <xs:keyref name="ID_Torwart" refer="SpielerID" />
                                        </xs:element>
                                        <xs:element name="Verteidiger">
                                                <xs:attribute name="GewonneneZweikaempfe" type="xs:integer" />
                                                <xs:keyref name="ID_Verteidiger" refer="SpielerID" />
                                        </xs:element>
                                        <xs:element name="Stuermer">
                                                <xs:attribute name="GeschosseneTore" type="xs:integer" />
                                                <xs:keyref name="ID_Stuermer" refer="SpielerID" />
                                        </xs:element>
                                </xs:complexType>
                        </xs:element>
                </xs:complexType>
        </xs:element>
</xs:schema>

and this sample:

<Fussballmannschaft Name="BVB">
<Stadt>Dortmund</Stadt>
<Tabellenplatz>3</Tabellenplatz>
    <Spieler SpielerID="1">
        <I_D>BVB</I_D>
        <Name>Oliver</Name>
        <Torwart>
            <GehealteneElfmeter>20</GehealteneElfmeter>
            <ID_Torwart>1</ID_Torwart>
        </Torwart>
    </Spieler>

    <Spieler SpielerID="2">
        <I_D>BVB</I_D>
        <Name>Peter</Name>
        <Torwart>
            <GewonneneZweikaempfe>20</GewonneneZweikaempfe>
            <ID_Verteidiger>2</ID_Verteidiger>
        </Torwart>
    </Spieler>

    <Spieler SpielerID="3">
        <I_D>BVB</I_D>
        <Name>Paul</Name>
        <Torwart>
            <GeschosseneTore>20</GeschosseneTore>
            <ID_Stuermer>3</ID_Stuermer>
        </Torwart>
    </Spieler>
</Fussballmannschaft>

But the parser says:

S4s-elt-character: Non-whitespace Characters Are Not Allowed In Schema Elements Other Than 'xs:appinfo' And 'xs:documentation'. Saw 'Dortmund'.

Do you know where the problem is?

回答1:

Stadt and Tabellenplatz mustn't be xml elements but need to be attributes of the element Fussballmannschaft. This pattern repeats with the inner elements.

The schema also lacks structures to express repetition of elements (namely the Spieler element) and choices between player roles (Torwart,Verteidiger,Stuermer).

The use of the xs:keyref in the schema definition appears to be incomplete - the referenced keys are not specified as xs:key elements. In order to demonstrate this use, a new root element Fussball is defined, which should reflect the intent of the schema to formalize the notion of soccer teams. This new root element harbors the key and keyref definitions for the club name attribute and will be needed anyway as soon as multiple teams are to be represented in in a file (there must be a single root element in an xml file ).

The following pair of schema and sample passes the validation.

The real reason you're getting this error,

S4s-elt-character: Non-whitespace Characters Are Not Allowed In Schema Elements Other Than 'xs:appinfo' And 'xs:documentation

is that you're attempting to validate your XML file as an XSD file.

So, fix the way you're invoking your validating parser so that you're validating your XML file against your XSD. See How to link XML to XSD using schemaLocation or noNamespaceSchemaLocation?

Additionally, there are a slew of additional problems with your XSD itself. See collapsar's answer for help there.
